Observations within the US: Although my travel within the US has been limited, I have observed how engineering practices and needs are met in highly urban areas like Seattle and Los Angeles versus rural agrarian settings. These observations have underscored the importance of context-specific solutions and the adaptability required in engineering.
Why Travel Matters: I am particularly interested in visiting countries like Japan, which is known for its robotics and sustainable infrastructure advancements. Exploring such regions would provide invaluable insights into cutting-edge engineering practices and help me contribute effectively to the Global Engineering RAP.
On the occasions that I have been able to travel domestically and outside of the US, particularly to some of the Western Caribbean Islands, I have enjoyed observing the differences in architectural design, materials, and how communities develop. These experiences have shown me how communities adapt to their environment and address their unique needs and economic conditions.

These experiences have shown me how communities adapt to their environment and address their unique needs and economic conditions.
Global experiences and perspectives are vital for advancing engineering. They expand our knowledge base, foster innovative solutions, and help us think beyond the limitations of a single context.
Traveling and engaging with different cultures and regions allow engineers to observe diverse architectural designs, materials, and community development strategies. For example, my travels to the Western Caribbean Islands have shown me how communities adapt their building practices to suit their environmental conditions and economic needs.
Global experiences encourage engineers to explore new possibilities and develop adaptable solutions. Observing sustainable practices in urban areas like Seattle and Los Angeles, as well as rural agrarian settings has highlighted the importance of context-specific engineering approaches.
My interest in sustainable technology and innovative engineering practices is tied to my desire to learn from global experiences. Visiting countries like Japan, known for their robotics and sustainable infrastructure advancements, would provide invaluable insights into cutting-edge engineering practices.
Global experiences enrich engineering by expanding our knowledge base, encouraging innovative thinking, and fostering adaptable solutions to address global challenges.

I am eager to join the Global Engineering RAP at CU Boulder because I believe being part of a community of practice with like-minded students will be incredibly beneficial. This program offers a unique opportunity to collaborate with peers passionate about engineering and sustainability, which aligns perfectly with my interests and goals.
Coming from an area of California that has experienced wildfires and floods, I have developed a keen interest in housing and communities that are built sustainably and with consideration of environmental challenges. The Global Engineering RAP will allow me to learn from other students with diverse backgrounds and experiences, enriching my understanding of global engineering practices and sustainable development.
I am confident that my open-mindedness and energy will be an asset to the team. I plan to contribute to the residential community by actively participating in discussions, sharing my experiences, and supporting my peers in their academic and personal growth. Additionally, I hope to engage in projects that address real-world environmental issues, leveraging the community's collective knowledge and skills to develop innovative solutions.
Overall, I believe that the Global Engineering RAP will enhance my training as an engineer and help me grow as a person by fostering a collaborative and supportive environment. I am excited about contributing to and learning from this vibrant peer community.
